I am slowly moving all the text related to this game here. I will sort it later into multiple pages, I suspect. Ernie or Nick, if you want, feel free to pitch in.

Also, beware there are some SPOILER type things on this page about dragons that every character might not know.

Something is stirring in the dark forests of Uragoth. Whispers of ill omen are filling taverns in Quivera as the Black Duke calls for persons of action to protect his northern border. Rumors of a dead age returned are spreading in Karandia. Vorak calls for strength of blood in Icara. The stories are as yet vague, but taking form in a riddle long since thought solved? The Riddle of the Blood Sky.


Over the last few months Quivera's northern border has been forced to turn its attention to the Dark Shadow Forest. Tavern rumor has it that a monster army is hiding within the trees, perilously close to the Duke's lands. Farmers near the forest edge have been losing livestock at an unprecedented rate. Theories hold that the scouts of the monster army are trying to supply the troops, or perhaps something darker was driven out by the army to hunt within the lands of Man.

Adventurers and other brave folk are promised riches by the Black Duke of Quivera if they will gather on his border to help defend the realm. On the well-traveled Silver Forest trading road the Duke's men have erected an outpost to gather, organize and supply all who answer the Duke's call. Rumor has it that the famed Fighting Rhino traveling tavern will soon set up shop alongside the outpost.
